A group of students organized a car wash to raise money for a local charity. The students charged $5.00 for each car they washed
. In 3 hours, they washed 12 cars. At that rate, how much money could they earn from washing cars for eight hours? and show how u got the answer please step by step
First you would divide 12 cars by 3 hours to see how many cars get washed per hour Then you know that 4 cars get washed in one hour so you multiply it by $5.00 because you want to see how much money they earn in one hour
After you know they earn $20.00 per hour you multiply that by 8 because you want to see how much money they earn in eight hours
So your final answer is $160 for washing cars in 8 hours
